Supreme Pharmacist System

After Yang Liqun's explanation, Zhou Wen knew about the case.

The patient is Hou Baoguo, 48 years old, a migrant worker who came to work in Jiangzhou from other provinces.

When he was a teenager, he suffered from a weird "laughing disease", often laughing uncontrollably.

His parents once took him to a large hospital for treatment. Due to the backward detection technology and the fact that Hou Baoguo's symptoms were similar to "epilepsy", the doctor judged his case as "smiley epilepsy".

Epilepsy is commonly known as "pig woman's wind" and "sheep's epilepsy". Everyone is familiar with typical seizures such as falling to the ground, foaming at the mouth, and twitching of the limbs.

However, typical seizures are just one of the most common epileptic manifestations. In fact, epileptic seizures are very strange.

For example, "laughing epilepsy", which accounts for 0.1% of epilepsy patients, may be a quiet laugh, just with a smile on the face, or a loud laugh, with high and low pitches.

It's a pity that Hou Baoguo didn't have epilepsy, and the treatment didn't improve.

Until this time when he came back to work in Jiangzhou, when the employer brought him for an inspection, he found something abnormal.

After further testing, it was discovered that what Hou Baoguo got was actually an extremely rare prion.

The reason why Yang Liqun called Zhou Wen over was because of the particularity of the case, which had very high research value.

"Then where is he now?"

"He was in the infection department, and I asked the doctor to keep him."

Zhou Wen asked after hearing the words: "Then let's go and have a look now?"

Yang Liqun nodded, "Well, let's go."

Yang Liqun called his two apprentices Wang Yan and Zhao Qichao, and Zhou Wen's apprentice Qin Haitao, and the five went to the infection department.

In the waiting room of the Department of Infectious Diseases, Hou Baoguo sat on the stool alone, with his head down, silently in a daze.

He was tall and thin, with dark skin, messy hair, and a beard. He looked very decadent. A 48-year-old who looks like a 68-year-old.

The N95 mask issued to him was also thrown aside.

Seeing Zhou Wen and his group coming in mightily, Hou Baoguo didn't even lift his head and remained motionless.

Yang Liqun went up and introduced himself, "Mr. Hou, I am..."

"Hahahahaha..."

Before Yang Liqun finished speaking, Hou Baoguo suddenly burst into laughter without warning.

Yang Liqun waited for him to laugh and said, "Mr. Hou, I am..."

"Hahahahahaha..."

Hou Baoguo laughed again without warning, this time even tears came out.

But everyone can see that there is no trace of joy on Hou Baoguo's face, only unspeakable pain, which makes people feel moved.

In the waiting room, a needle could be heard for a moment, and everyone was stung by the expression on Hou Baoguo's face.

Zhou Wen opened the Eye of True Sight to see Hou Baoguo's brain.

More than 90% of human prions discovered so far are concentrated in proteins of the nervous system.

Hou Baoguo was no exception.

Zhou Wen discovered that a large number of mutated protein molecules were adsorbed on the proteins of his brain's nervous system. These protein molecules were convex and concave, very ugly.

And Hou Baoguo's ridiculous behavior should be caused by these mutated protein molecules.

Yang Liqun opened his mouth, and just as he was about to speak, Zhou Wen touched his arm, then stepped forward and walked in front of Hou Baoguo, and said loudly, "Hou Baoguo, stand up!"

Yang Liqun, Qin Haitao, Zhao Qichao, and Wang Yan were all taken aback by Zhou Wen.

They came here to understand the patient's condition, or in other words, they wanted Hou Baoguo to cooperate with their research work.

How can you yell like that?

But to their surprise, Hou Baoguo stood up on the stool with a "thump" like a spring.

And the "smile" on the face,

Miraculously disappeared, and became exactly the same as normal people.

With a bit of apprehension and caution.

"..."

Qin Haitao, Zhao Qichao, and Wang Yan were all amazed when they saw this scene.

At the same time, I was secretly dumbfounded, no wonder Zhou Wen became a virus expert at a young age, it really wasn't his fault.

Yang Liqun also immediately realized that Hou Baoguo must have suffered from a kind of "stress reaction syndrome".

He has been tortured by prions for many years, including not only the physical destruction of the virus itself, but also the irony, ridicule, sarcasm, and even physical blows from others.

So when he encounters some specific contexts, he will have a stress response and laugh endlessly to intimidate those bad guys.

For example, he said "sir".

Under normal circumstances, who would call a slovenly and unkempt migrant worker like Hou Baoguo "Sir"?

In Hou Baoguo's subconscious mind, this was sarcasm and ridicule, so he had a stress reaction.

And hearing the commanding tone of a "foreman" like Zhou Wen, Hou Baoguo's body would also have a stress response.

Although he is sick, he still wants to survive and work.

And those foremen would not be polite to people with "strange disease" like Hou Baoguo, probably like Zhou Wen, yelling and cursing were their "normal way of communication".

Yang Liqun was filled with admiration.

It can be seen from this that Zhou Wen has very profound attainments in pathology.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for ordinary people to think of this in such a short period of time.

Zhou Wen didn't talk nonsense, and said straight to the point: "Hou Baoguo, we found a rare virus in your body..."

A look of despair appeared on Hou Baoguo's face, and he asked, "I... am I dying?"

Zhou Wen: "You don't have to worry about that, you won't die for the time being. According to your situation, it's no problem to be optimistic and live to be 60 years old."

Hou Baoguo's gray eyes reflected a ray of light, and then he said: "You don't need to lie to me...I know it's hopeless."

While speaking, Hou Baoguo turned his head, reached out his hand to wipe away the cloudy tears from the corners of his eyes, and slowly sat down on the stool.

Zhou Wen shouted impatiently: "I'm a doctor, or are you a doctor? If I say you can't die, you won't die. Why are you crying?

Also, we are all standing, you sit down, do you understand what is polite? "

If Zhou Wen's words were a little softer, Hou Baoguo would be depressed, but if Zhou Wen's words were a little harder, Hou Baoguo immediately regained his spirits.

He stood up and wiped the tears from his eyes, "Oh, oh, I... I didn't cry."

Zhou Wen: "Okay, there's nothing to cry about. People who live to be 60 years old are considered dead without any regrets, right?"

A relaxed look appeared on Hou Baoguo's face, "Well, you're right...hahahahahaha..."

Hou Baoguo couldn't help laughing again, but he still tried his best to explain: "I'm sorry, I...hahaha..."

Zhou Wen hardened his heart and scolded: "I know! That's enough, don't laugh."

Hou Baoguo held back his laughter.

But the tears in the corners of his eyes kept flowing, it was an instinctive reaction stimulated by prions, not controlled by his mind.

Seeing Hou Baoguo like this, everyone at the scene felt very uncomfortable and deeply sympathized.

Especially Zhou Wen and Yang Liqun.

They know that if they want to develop a stress disorder like Hou Baoguo, they can imagine how much ruthless ridicule, teasing, irony, and sarcasm he has received over the years?

It was a purgatory unimaginable to ordinary people.

It's like walking barefoot on a road paved with thorns.

The word "cruel" is far from enough to describe the harm he has suffered over the years.

Yang Liqun said: "It's like this. The disease in your body is very special. We hope you stay in the hospital and cooperate with us to do some research work."

When Hou Baoguo heard that he was going to "study" him, his face showed a look of fear, and he said anxiously, "You...do you want...to slice me up?"

Zhou Wen: "..."

Yang Liqun: "..."

Qin Haitao: "..."

"..."

He actually knows "slicing"...

Qin Haitao couldn't help but said: "Who told you that research is sliced? Slice you, why not shoot us all?

Don't worry, it's just drawing some blood, extracting some tissue cells... It's skin debris, used for scientific research, and using instruments to observe changes in your body. "

After a pause, Qin Haitao followed, "Not only can't slice, but we will take good care of you."

Hou Baoguo didn't believe his words, and turned to look at Zhou Wen.

Zhou Wen said: "He is right. You cooperate with our observation and research, and the hospital will provide you with three meals a day. In addition, there will be a living allowance of 200 yuan per day."

Speaking of which, Zhou Wen turned to look at Yang Liqun, and said, "Right, Group Yang?"

Yang Liqun: "..."

There is no problem with the observation and research. With him being a senior virus expert, the hospital will most likely pass the application.

However, the subsidy is hard to say. The hospital agreed to treat Hou Baoguo for free.

They are hospitals, not research institutes.

If the above does not approve, then the subsidy will be paid by him personally.

"Research is just research, what kind of subsidy is provided. It's really just looking for trouble!"

Yang Liqun slandered inwardly, and said bravely, "Yes, 200 yuan a day! Don't worry, if the hospital doesn't approve it, Dr. Zhou and I will be half and half."

Zhou Wen: "..."
